Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome on - Ask a Doctor - service!

Regarding your question I would explain that using Meloxicam while on therapy with Hydrochlorothiazide and Metoprolol may lead to several interactions like:

- Meloxicam may decrease the effect of Metoprolol,
- Meloxicam may increase serum potassium, while Hydrochlorothiazide decreases it.
- Meloxicam may increase blood pressure values, and as other NSAIDs may lead to heart failure decompensation.

Anyway, if used for breef periods of time this combination may be considered safe without the rish of the above mentioned issues.

Hope to have been helpful to you!

In case of any further questions, feel free to ask me again.
